Intuition automatically refreshes all known elements. That is the window borders and gadgets linked to the Window->FirstGadget list.

There are several methods:
- make the window SMART_REFRESH.
- use ASLFR_Window and ASLFR_IntuiMsgFunc to keep your window alive.
- instead of drawing yourself attach all the text to a gadget and let Intuition do the refreshing.
- place the windows and requester so that the user does not need to move it around.
